Carex testacea

Orange Sedge

Thinking about how to liven up your autumn and winter flower beds? Carex testacea is an ornamental grass that will thrill you with its shifting shades and minimal care requirements. In nature, it inhabits the diverse landscape of New Zealand, where it has adapted to both sunny locations and semi-shaded corners. It will welcome similar conditions in your garden. Plant it in permeable, loamy, and humus-rich soil where it will have consistent moisture. Carex testacea forms dense fountains of narrow leaves reaching a height of 40 to 60 centimeters. Its color transitions smoothly from summer green to autumn copper, and finally to deep orange and bronze, which will brighten the garden even on the grayest days. During the summer, from June to August, it is adorned with small brown and beige flowers. It is considered a short-lived perennial, but thanks to its reliable self-seeding, you will enjoy its clumps constantly. In garden architecture, Carex testacea is a very valuable element. Its fine texture perfectly complements rocks and gravel areas, and it pairs excellently with other drought-tolerant perennials in naturalistic plantings. Its ability to retain its shape and color throughout the winter is invaluable, lending a beautiful winter effect to empty beds. Show full description

Feather grass flowers capture attention in beds and bouquets with their lightness and delicacy. All feather grasses love full sun and dry, stony, well-drained soil.

Showy stonecrop is one of the longest-living and hardiest perennials you can treat your garden to. It originally comes from the Far East, where it colonizes sunny and dry slopes. For successful cultivation, you simply need to find it a spot in direct sun with well-drained sandy soil.

We will deliver a mature potted seedling that you can easily transplant straight into the flowerbed after unpacking. We recommend planting five to seven plants per square meter; they will soon join into a solid stand around seventy centimeters tall. From August to October, it will then delight you with rich, flat inflorescences in an old rose color. It is an ideal choice for those looking for beauty without unnecessary effort. This stonecrop easily survives harsh winters with frosts dropping to minus twenty-eight degrees, and pests and diseases avoid it. The 'Matrona' variety differs from others in that it will reliably grow even in more nutritious soil, provided it is not waterlogged. In perennial compositions, it creates a beautiful contrast next to delicate ornamental grasses and other autumn flowers. During sunny days, bees, butterflies, and other pollinators constantly take turns over its flowers. You can boldly use the sturdy stems with pink umbels for cutting. They stay fresh in a vase for quite a long time and will bring a touch of the slowly ending summer into your home. It might surprise you that the leaves of this stonecrop are edible and can be used to garnish dishes.

Salvia Nachtvlinder, Loukykvět
Special offer

Salvia gregii

Sage 'Nachtvlinder' is a true jewel among portable container plants, which will win you over with its unusual color and endurance. The original species *Salvia greggii* comes from the sunny and dry semi-desert regions of Texas and Mexico, where it grows on rocky and poor soils. Thanks to this, it is very undemanding regarding watering here as well and loves full sun. In our conditions, we most often grow it as a portable plant in pots on terraces or balconies, because its frost resistance reaches only -12 °C. For the winter, we therefore recommend hiding it in a frost-free bright place, or carefully covering it in the warmest regions of the country. The 'Nachtvlinder' variety, whose name translates as night moth, will enchant you with velvety flowers in a deep shade of plum purple. Its huge advantage is the incredibly long flowering period, which starts in May and often ends only with the arrival of stronger frosts in November. The entire plant is strongly aromatic and releases a pleasant spicy scent when touched. Furthermore, the flowers are edible and sweet, so they are perfectly suited as an unconventional garnish for summer salads or desserts. It will also attract a large number of bees and other beneficial insects to your garden.

Cultivation

Ostřice oranžová je úžasná okrasná tráva, jejíž pěstování hravě zvládne i úplný začátečník. Jelikož vám domů dorazí již silná a dobře prokořeněná sazenice, můžete se rovnou pustit do výsadby na trvalé stanoviště. Nejlépe se jí bude dařit na plném slunci nebo v mírném polostínu. Platí zde ale jednoduché pravidlo, že čím více slunečních paprsků rostlina dostane, tím intenzivnější bude oranžové a bronzové zbarvení jejích listů. Půdu vyžaduje dobře propustnou, hlinitou a bohatou na humus. Na zálivku je středně náročná, postačí jí běžná zahradní vlhkost bez dlouhodobého přemokření, které by mohlo vést k uhnívání kořenů. Při výsadbě na záhon dodržujte spon 40 až 50 centimetrů, což odpovídá zhruba 5 až 7 rostlinám na jeden metr čtvereční. Tento rozestup zajistí optimální cirkulaci vzduchu a dostatek prostoru, aby trsy mohly dorůst do své plné krásy a výšky 40 až 60 centimetrů. Pro pěstování v květináči zvolte kvalitní humózní substrát, přidejte trochu písku pro lepší propustnost a na dno nezapomeňte umístit drenážní vrstvu. Rostliny v nádobách zalévejte pravidelně, ale vždy nechte vrchní vrstvu půdy mírně proschnout.Ačkoliv se botanicky jedná o krátkověkou trvalku, vůbec se toho nemusíte obávat. Ostřice se na svém stanovišti velmi ochotně sama přesévá, takže vám na zahradě vydrží po mnoho let. S údržbou si nemusíte lámat hlavu, protože rostlina netrpí na žádné choroby a vyhýbají se jí i škůdci. Před zimou trsy rozhodně nestříhejte, jejich listy vytvoří nádherný zimní efekt a navíc chrání srdíčko rostliny před vymrznutím. Ostřice bez problémů odolá mrazům až do -23 stupňů Celsia. Na jaře pak stačí pouze rukou nebo malými hrabičkami vyčesat staré a suché listy, čímž uvolníte místo pro nové jarní výhony.

Remote Sedge, Loukykvět
New

Carex remota

Are you looking for reliable greenery for problematic shady places where other flowers do not thrive? Carex disperma will surprise you with its hardiness and natural appearance. Its native home is humid groves and forest wetlands. In the garden, it therefore most appreciates shade or partial shade and a large dose of moisture in loamy and clayey soil. It forms lower, approximately thirty-centimeter-tall clumps of lush leaves, which perfectly fill empty spaces under trees or along shady paths at a spacing of thirty to forty centimeters. In early summer, inconspicuous yellowish and greenish flowers appear. You won't create floral arrangements from them as this sedge is not suitable for cutting, but it provides a wonderful visual base for other perennials in the flower bed. In the winter months, it also retains an interesting structure, providing the much-desired winter effect. It is completely free of diseases and pests and self-seeds naturally in the location. This creates a lush green carpet that will transform your garden into a piece of a quiet forest.

Pendulous Sedge, Loukykvět
New

Carex pendula

Carex pendula brings unusual elegance and fluid movement to the shady corners of the garden. In nature, you will most often find this perennial in damp forests and on the banks of streams. At your place, it will thrive best in partial shade or shade, in loamy or clayey soil that reliably retains moisture. Soon after planting, it will form dense clumps of dark green leaves and gradually grow over one meter tall. Its main decoration is the long, drooping spikes in olive and chestnut shades. This sedge perfectly complements shrub undergrowth and the edges of ponds. Although its flowers are not suitable for drying, you can wonderfully enliven summer bouquets with them in their fresh state. In a suitable location, it also enjoys self-seeding, forming a charming detail in the garden under a layer of winter frost.

Palm Sedge, Loukykvět
New

Carex muskingumensis

Ostřice muskingumská je spolehlivá trvalka, která do zahrady vnese svěží zelenou barvu a zajímavou strukturu. Její původní domovinou jsou vlhké lužní lesy a břehy vodních toků v Severní Americe. Právě proto si na zahradě nejlépe poradí na místech, kde je dostatek vláhy. Výborně se jí daří v humózní, hlinité až jílovité půdě, a to na plném slunci i v polostínu..  V záhonu zaujme především svým specifickým růstem, kdy se světle zelené listy skládají na stoncích do tvaru připomínajícího drobné palmy. Dorůstá výšky šedesát až osmdesát centimetrů a od června do srpna tvoří nenápadné, ale elegantní květy v kaštanově hnědém odstínu. Ideálně vynikne ve skupinových výsadbách poblíž jezírek, v dešťových zahradách nebo jako podrost.
